본 연구에서는 소규모 철골조에 대한 기존 건축물의 접합부 현황조사와 분석을 통해 노출형 주각부에 대한 내진성능을 평가하였다. 총 9개의 주각부에 대한 반복가력 실험을 통해 휨강도, 변형능력, 그리고 초기강성 등이 조사되었다. 실험의 주요 변수는 베이스 플레이트의 두께, 앵커볼트의 개수와 매립깊이, 앵커볼트 후크의 유무, 그리고 리브 플레이트의 유무이다. 본 실험결과에 의하면, 주각부의 휨거동은 앵커볼트의 개수와 매립깊이, 그리고 베이스 플레이트의 두께에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에, 주각부에 설치된 리브플레이트는 휨강도에 큰 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 종합적으로 노출형 철골 주각부와 기초부 그리고 앵커볼트 등이 모두 현행 구조기준을 만족한다고 할지라도, 앵커볼트와 기초부 콘크리트 사이의 부착력이 충분하지 않을 경우, 슬립형 거동이 관측되어 개선이 필요한 것으로 파악되었다. 앵커볼트의 매립깊이가 현행 구조기준을 만족하고, 앵커볼트에 후크가 설치된 경우, 노출형 주각부의 초기강성은 주각부가 구속되었을 때의 휨강성 하한값의 약 15% 수준인 것으로 나타났다.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to assess changes in blood glucose level, blood pressure, and arterial stiffness after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in elderly women aged over 65 years with hypertension and either normal glycemic control, impaired fasting glucose tolerance, or diabetes mellitus. We also wished to investigate the relationship between stages of diabetes and physical fitness. [Methods] A total of 24 elderly women with hypertension were assigned to a control group (CON; n=7), impaired fasting glucose group (IFG; n=9), and diabetes mellitus group (DM; n=8). In each group, blood glucose level, brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (PWV), and blood pressure were measured at baseline as well as 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT. Physical fitness factors such as hand grip strength, balance test, 4 m gait speed test, chair stand test, short physical performance battery, and 6-minute walking test were subsequently assessed. [Results] In all three groups, blood glucose levels were significantly increased at 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT. In the DM group, blood glucose levels were significantly higher before and after a 75 g OGTT than in the CON group. In the CON group, PWV was significantly increased at 60 minutes after a 75 g OGTT; however, there were no changes in other groups after glucose ingestion. In the CON group, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly decreased at 60 and 120 minutes after a 75 g OGTT compared to baseline. However, there was no change in blood pressure after ingestion in the DM group. The IFG group had greater grip strength than the CON group; however, there were no differences in other variables between the groups. [Conclusion] After a 75 g OGTT, elderly women with hypertension and diabetes maintain higher blood glucose levels compared to those with hypertension alone. Unlike elderly women with hypertension alone, those with hypertension and diabetes did not show changes in arterial stiffness and blood pressure after a 75 g OGTT. Therefore, elderly women with hypertension and diabetes may not be able to control their blood vessels following a 75 g OGTT due to impaired vascular endothelial function. Moreover, there was no association between diabetes stage and physical fitness in elderly women with hypertension.

Cotton fabrics were treated with BTCA, which is used to improve the wrinkle recovery property of cotton fabrics. BTCA, with varying its concentrations, was treated on cotton fabrics by pad dry-cure technique. BTCA contents in treated cotton fabrics were determined by the weight gain and the FT-lR spectrometer. The effects on the sorption and physical properties of BTCA treated fabrics were investigated. IR spectra showed that ester-crosslinks were produced in BTCA treated cotton fabrics. And as increasing the concentration of BTCA, ester-crosslinks are increased in amorphous regions of fabrics. Moisture regain and water imbibition of treated fabrics were reduced. But, they were increased over a certain concentration. Dye sorptions also were reduced, but they were similar over 6% BTCA. When BTCA was treated on cotton fabrics, DP rating and wrinkle recovery angle were improved. On the other hand, strength retentions of treated fabrics were lower than untreated fabrics. Stiffness was increased.

Carbody bolster must be a strong structural member of the underframe because it is in the direct line of weight transmission. On the other hand, carbody bolster is a heavy member that occupied about 20~25% in the weight of underframe. In order to reduce the weight of carbody bolster, we study the design factors such as bending stiffness, bending strength and deformation according to the change of carbody bolster's second moment of area. And we investigate the design factors of a total of 10 species of existing rail vehicles. The results of this study can be used as practicable method in designing carbody bolster in the future.

This paper introduces a step motor with a passively levitated rotor which comprises a homopolar step motor and a passive magnetic bearing. Compared with conventional self-bearing motors which are mostly based on the active magnetic bearing technology, the proposed motor has a very simple structure and operating principle. For the levitation, it works just like passive magnetic bearings which use the repulsive force between permanent magnets. Halbach array is used to increase the bearing stiffness. On the other hand, its rotation principle is just the same with that of conventional motors. In this paper, we introduce the design scheme to avoid the flux interference possibly produced by electromagnets and permanent magnets, and show some results of FEM analysis to predict the performance of the proposed motor.

This paper is concerned with the natural periods of ambient vibration and eigenvalue analysis. Ambient vibration tests were conducted to four bearing-wall reinforced concrete buildings ranging from twelve to nineteen stories. The performance of modeling in eigenvalue analysis was investigated using consideration of rigidity out of the plane in the slab and the non-structural bearing wall. Measured natural period was also compared with the value by the KBC2005. Natural period of the short direction in eigenvalue analysis is well fitted with the measured one. In the other hand, Natural period of the long direction in eigenvalue analysis is slightly more overestimated than the measured one. Natural period of the long direction in eigenvalue analysis was found to be enhanced by considering the effect of the stiffness out of the plane of the slab and non-structural wall in the structural modeling.

Strength evaluation of soft soils is a formidable task because of difficulties in sampling, specimen preparation and setting in triaxial cells. In undrained triaxial testing, sampling disturbance, verticality of specimen and bedding effect give a great influence on shear strength measurements. In the other hand, shear wave measurements of specimens are less influenced by these factors. In this research, the bender elements were attached top cap and base pedestal of triaxial cell and shear wave velocities were measured. To initiate a methodology to evaluate shear strength indirectly by measuring shear wave velocity, a relationship between shear strength and shear wave velocity was developed with kaolinite specimens consolidated in the laboratory. Undrained shear strength turns out to increase linearly with shear wave velocity. Stress-strain curves can also be predicted with a hyperbolic model and shear wave measurements.

A mechanical device was developed for assisting the grasping function of a person whose fingers suffered cervical injury and thus are unable to grasp. This device is composed of a mechanical glove put on the user's hand and a muscle sensor to measure the activity of his or her muscle. The mechanical glove consists of a finger frame, a base and an air cylinder mounted on the base. With the kinematics carefully designed, the finger frame can achieve the grasping motion under the actuation of the air cylinder. For controlling this motion, an innovative sensor was developed to detect the user's motion intention. The sensor measures the change of the muscle stiffness...

Recently, the size of glass panel is increased to $1250 mm{\times}1100 mm{\times}0.7 mm$, whose mass is 2.65 kg, which requires much stiffer robot structure. In addition to the high stiffness, the robot hands and wrists for glass panel handling should have miller surface finishing of its outer surface to prevent particles and dusts from adhering on the surface. The maximum height of the robot structure should not be larger than 1500 mm because other automated guided vehicles (AGV) and transfer equipments have been designed within this size limit. The difference of maximum deflections of the four ends of the hands before and after loading the glass panel should be less than 2.0 mm. In this work, the robot hands and wrists for handling large glass panel displays were designed based on the axiomatic design using the finite element method along with optimization routine.

Linear motors can drive a linear motion without intermediate gears, screws or crank shafts. Linear motors can successfully replace ball lead screw in machine tools, because they have a high velocity, acceleration and good positioning accuracy. On the other hand, linear motors emit large amounts of heat and have low efficiency. In this paper, heat sources of a synchronous linear motor with high velocity and force are measured and analyzed. To improve the thermal stiffness of the linear motor, an insulation layer with low thermal conductivity is inserted between cooler and machine table. Some effects of the insulation layer are presented.
